    "content": "Today there are floods in many parts of this country. There are floods in Narok, Kajiado, Kwale and many other counties. These floods are mainly caused by our failure to conserve the natural environment, and this leads to climate change. There are people building estates close to rivers. What you hear the following day is people demanding ElNino emergency money, because they want the Government to put measures to control this. Some of these things are brought by us not following, or trying to conserve our natural resources. So, I urge the Ministry to implement this policy. The Ministry should ensure that physical planning is duly followed by the county governments and the people when they are building. This is so that we leave the water course to follow in its own channel and conserve our wetlands. By doing this we will also conserve our forested areas, so that we can have the beauty of Kenya, which we have been given as a gift by God for our people to enjoy. I support this Sessional Paper. I urge the Ministry to make sure that they implement its proposals. I support. Thank you."
